Born in Havana, Cuba, on November 3, 1956. At the age of twelve, Juan emigrated from Cuba to the United States, where he dedicated himself to hard work, always striving for the best for himself and his family. He retired after 29 years of service as a bus operator at GBTA. Juan was a versatile and active person, often described as a jack of all trades, and he had a keen interest in history. He will leave behind his German shepherd, Rommel, who he deeply loved.
